I bought this bike about 1.5 years ago. Originally I had it built for road riding but I'm focusing more on mountain biking for 2026. I built this for commuting now that the snow has finally melted away. Let me know what you think. I have a few bits that I'd like to 'upgrade’, but honestly, it's all perfectly functional.

Nice! Love the old Santa Cruz bikes. My wife is riding 2003 Chamelon for MTB. Used to run it single speed.
Looks fast
